Weatherby Vanguard is a heck of a bargain for a rifle that is well made and not a throw away plastic piece of junk.
I have to agree with this as well...........as I think the MarkV might be the most over rated.
I have a Vanguard 2 SS in .30-06 topped with a Leupold VX R 4-12 with firedot, and it is a heck of a good rifle. Had a young man who uses some custom rifle in 7MM STW tell me my rifle was a piece of junk. But he didn't want to put up $100 on a group size bet.
